Another of these factors is infertility. Generally, female gorillas mature at 10â12 years of age (or earlier at 7â8 years) and their male counterparts mature more slowly, rarely strong and dominant enough to reproduce before 15â20 years of age.
A herniated disk, sometimes (incorrectly) called a slipped disk, is a common cause of severe back pain and sciatica. A disk in the lumbar area becomes herniated when it ruptures or thins out, and degenerates to the point that the gel within the disk (the nucleus pulposus) pushes outward.
Popliteus tendonitis or injury is inflammation or injury to the small muscle at the back of the knee called the popliteus. The role of the popliteus muscle is to internally rotate the tibia or shin bone. Symptoms include pain at the back of the knee joint with tenderness when pressing in.Pain may be reproduced when the knee is bent against resistance whilst the lower leg or tibia bone is rotated outwards.eferred pain is where an injury or problem elsewhere causes pain at the back of the knee. This can be from the lower back or lumbar spine and pain is referred down into the knee through the sciatic nerve.
